About Daidalos Capital

Daidalos Capital is an investment firm based in Frankfurt, Germany, that specializes in the Airborne Wind Energy (AWE) sector. They are dedicated to investing in next-generation wind energy technologies, focusing on a radical new concept—Airborne Wind Energy. This approach involves using large, fully autonomous drones known as Wind Drones, which are flown like kites and tethered to the ground to harness wind power at high altitudes where winds are stronger and more consistent than winds reachable by traditional wind turbines. Daidalos Capital believes that AWE can potentially halve energy costs while opening new markets, as suggested by studies like the IRENA (International Renewable Energy Agency) Innovation Outlook Offshore Wind report from 2016. The firm claims a commitment to only investing in outstanding opportunities within the AWE space, ensuring a deep understanding of their investments. Their investment thesis is underpinned by the belief that drones, which were previously exclusive to the military and are now commonly used by hobbyists, represent the future of various commercial applications, including in the renewable energy sector. Daidalos Capital has been involved in the AWE community, noting collaborations with portfolio companies like Ampyx Power and keeping abreast of industry developments, such as potential investments by individuals like Bill Gates in AWE. The firm stresses the importance of AWE news and encourages subscription to their newsletter for the latest updates. They are also cautious to mention that information on their site should not be construed as an offer or solicitation for investment and that securities are offered only through authorized private placement memoranda.
